Summary

It all happens so quickly. One day you're living the dream, commuting to work by riverbus with your charismatic neighbour Kit in the seat beside you. The next, Kit hasn't turned up for the boat and his wife Melia has reported him missing. 

When you get off at your stop, the police are waiting. Another passenger saw you and Kit arguing on the boat home the night before and the police say that you had a reason to want him dead. You protest. You and Kit are friends - ask Melia, she'll vouch for you. And who exactly is this other passenger pointing the finger? What do they know about your lives?

No, whatever danger followed you home last night, you are innocent, totally innocent.

Aren't you?

Why is not a TV series, or film?

The story has more twists and turns than the river Thames, along which the story takes place

Spoilt by the narrator

It wasn't that the narrator was bad, it was his sneering tone of voice for almost every character that annoyed me. When I realised it was Steven Mackintosh, I was amazed as he's voiced many things perfectly well, so it was his interpretation that was at fault.

The story itself dragged a bit, with only one twist of note to make me sit up. I finished it because I was hoping for another, but the end left me rather disappointed. I give it 3 stars though, because my expectation may have been a bit high as I can't help but compare all crime novels to my favourite author, Robert Goddard.

Excellent!

Started a little slow and I wasn’t riveted for a while but there is a reward for sticking with the story.
Twists I certainly did not see coming ( and I’m usually not bad at working them out ) I don’t want to give anything away but the ending could of been predictable. It’s not!
Enjoy!

Enjoyed!

Struggled briefly at the beginning before being happily swept along with the plot's twists and turns. Made decorating more enjoyable that's for sure!

The perfect entrapment

A truly breathtaking and fast pace thriller. Engaging and hypnotic from the go. Read in a short space as it was gripping and you want to get to the end. Absolutely brilliant.

The narrator is perfect with the right skills to really pull readers in and bring the story to life.

Another brilliant one from Louise!

The other passenger - good book

Great narrator! Good plot but a bit far fetched. I really enjoyed that the book was set in London and the characters were believable.

slow start

This one took a while to build but then twists and turns made it suspenseful. The narration was OK- bit flat and too manly for the female lead.
